On October 13, 2026, members of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) along with sugarcane growers and local farmers staged a massive protest at the strategic Gabbur Bypass on the National Highway in Hubballi, Karnataka.
The joint agitation saw protesters completely block traffic on the highway, demanding a revised Minimum Support Price (MSP) of ₹5,500 per tonne for sugarcane, timely clearance of pending crop dues, implementation of the Swaminathan Commission recommendations, and immediate relief measures for farming communities across the state. The highway blockade led to severe traffic congestion, prompting a heavy police deployment to maintain law and order and divert traffic. Protesters warned of escalating state-wide agitations if the administration fails to address their core demands promptly
